“You work that you may keep pace with the earth and the soul of the earth.”

“When you work you fulfill a part of earth's furthest dream, assigned to you when your dream was born”

“To you the earth yields her fruit, and you shall not want if you but know how to fill your hands.”

“Would that you could live on the fragrance of the earth, and like an air plant be sustained by the light.”

“And even as each one of you stands alone in God's knowledge, so must each one of you be alone in his knowledge of God and in his understanding of the earth.”

“For what is it to die but to stand naked in the wind and to melt into the sun?And what is it to cease breathing but to free the breath from its restless tides, that it may rise and expand and seek God unencumbered?Only when you drink from the river of silence shall you indeed sing.And when you have reached the mountaintop,then you shall begin to climb.And when the earth shal claim your limbs,then shall you truly dance.”

“Only when you drink from the river of silence shall you indeed sing.And when you have reached the mountain top, then you shall begin to climb.And when the earth shall claim your limbs, then shall you truly dance.”
